Investing in a few of these players could increase the diversification of your portfolio. A new investing year is here, and if you have cash to deploy, now is a great time to get started. Here, I'll highlight several stocks that offer one or more of the following: an interesting valuation, a recovery story, a solid track record of earnings success, and leadership in a growth market. If you invest in a handful of these players, you'll offer yourself diversification -- and potentially a long-term investing win. Let's check out my 10 top stocks to buy to start the new year off right. 1. Palantir Technologies Palantir Technologies (PLTR +3.64%) is winning in the growth market of artificial intelligence (AI). The company's AI-driven software platform, Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), helps customers make better use of their data, and this has spurred enormous earnings growth over the past several quarters. Palantir's revenue, once driven by government customers, today is driven by both government and commercial customers. They've flocked to AIP as it allows them to easily and immediately apply AI to their needs. The company has seen high demand quarter after quarter, and this may continue as the AI boom marches on. 2. IonQ IonQ (IONQ +4.15%) is an innovator in the hot growth area of quantum computing. These computers offer the opportunity to solve problems that are impossible for classical computers. Though it may take several years for quantum computers to become generally useful, progress is being made -- and IonQ is one of the promising players.

In recent weeks, Micron Technology has reported record revenue growth, sharp margin expansion, and fully booked high-bandwidth memory capacity for 2026 as AI-driven demand and supply constraints reshape the global memory market. A key development is Micron’s decision to lift its fiscal 2026 capital expenditure plan to US$20.00 billion, signaling how aggressively the company is building out capacity to meet this surge in high-value AI memory demand. Next, we’ll explore how Micron’s expanded AI-focused capex plan could reshape its earlier investment narrative around earnings growth and cycle risks. The best AI stocks today may lie beyond giants like Nvidia and Microsoft. Find the next big opportunity with these 25 smaller AI-focused companies with strong growth potential through early-stage innovation in machine learning, automation, and data intelligence that could fund your retirement. Micron Technology Investment Narrative Recap To own Micron today, I think you need to believe that AI-driven demand for advanced memory like HBM can offset the industry’s usual boom‑bust swings. The latest news of fully booked 2026 HBM capacity and strong pricing supports that near term, while the biggest risk remains that heavy capex and fierce competition from Samsung and SK Hynix could eventually squeeze returns if supply catches up too quickly. For me, the most telling update is Micron lifting its fiscal 2026 capex plan to US$20.00 billion. That aligns directly with the core catalyst of scaling higher value AI memory, but it also amplifies the existing concern around capital intensity and the pressure that sustained high spending can put on free cash flow and future shareholder returns. Yet while the current AI upcycle looks powerful, investors should be aware that Micron’s elevated capex and intensifying HBM competition could eventually...

委内瑞拉债券价格周一飙升,一些长期债权人举行会议,讨论美国控制尼古拉斯·马杜罗一事对委内瑞拉约600亿美元违约债务的影响,讨论债权人是否有望收回部分投资。据几位知情人士称,至少有10家公司的代表出席电话会议,其中包括Ashmore Group Plc和Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co.。由于未获授权公开发言,知情人士要求匿名。会议气氛乐观。委内瑞拉停止偿还债务已有八年之久,而且美国制裁切断该国与全球经济的大部分联系,债务重组谈判也并不存在。 知情人士透露,一些与会者预计谈判最早可能在今年恢复。这种乐观情绪体在交易系统中也有所反映。委内瑞拉2027年到期的债券价格飙升29%,至每1美元面值约43美分,重回违约前的水平。委内瑞拉国家石油公司(PDVSA) 2026年到期的债券也飙升35%,接近每1美元面值近32美分。 “我预计需要18到24个月,大概在这个时间范围内。”Stone Harbor Investment Partners首席投资官Jim Craige在谈到潜在的债务重组时间表时称,“可能会有惊喜。” 委内瑞拉债权人委员会的律师和Grantham, Mayo的高管均拒绝置评。Ashmore的一位发言人未回复置评请求。 责任编辑:王永生

The operator of a nuclear power plant in central Japan said on Monday its employees may have used cherry-picked data for a potential earthquake in quake-resistance tests at the plant to pass the regulatory screening for restart. The Nuclear Regulation Authority said the same day it found “wrongdoing” by Chubu Electric Power in the screening process and halted the review. The incident is a major setback for the Japanese government. Concerns over the safety of nuclear power plants grew strong in Japan after the 2011 Fukushima nuclear crisis. Advertisement But the government is pushing ahead with the resumption of reactors under stricter safety rules to cut greenhouse gas emissions and ensure stable power supply. The utility halted operations at the power plant in May 2011 like other nuclear power plants in Japan following the nuclear disaster. Advertisement “This is unbelievable. It completely shatters the trust in the operator,” a senior NRA executive said. “It will make people question its eligibility.”

Key Points It announced a new acquisition. It's paying around $725 million for Hanley Energy Group, and could also be obligated to an additional $58 million in contingency payouts. 10 stocks we like better than Jabil › A new acquisition announced by electronic components maker Jabil (NYSE: JBL) on Monday wasn't greeted warmly by Mr. Market. Investors traded out of the company on news of its latest deal, to the point where the stock lost more than 7% of its value that trading session. Starting off the new year with a new asset buy That morning, Jabil announced that it is now the owner of privately held Hanley Energy Group, which specializes in energy management and critical power solutions targeting the data center segment. The deal closed last Friday, and was effected in cash at a price of roughly $725 million. Jabil is also on the hook for as much as $58 million in contingent considerations. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now, when you join Stock Advisor. See the stocks » In the press release trumpeting the asset buy, Jabil leaned hard on its synergistic qualities. The company quoted executive vice president of global business units, intelligent infrastructure Matt Crowley as saying of Hanley that its "know-how and capabilities complement Jabil's existing power management solutions for data centers and will help us deploy and service them down to the rack level." Details wanted In that press release, Jabil did not provide details as to how it is funding the Hanley acquisition. Investors tend to dislike such a lack of particulars, which is likely one reason for Monday's sell-off. To me, however, given the numerous build-outs occurring in the data center space to handle the increased resource needs of artificial intelligence (AI), it makes a lot of sense to push hard into this segment. Jabil is doing exactly that, and with a company that has true global reach (Hanley has 13 locati...
